Little of the soil of planet Earth is older than the Pleistocene and none is older than the Cenozoic, although fossilized soils are preserved from as far back as the Archean.

      Editing the title’s not really fair for those who replied with correct information.

      Delete feels like a cover up.

      I think it’s pretty clear from the votes and comments what happened.

      If mods want to remove it, it doesn’t bother me at all.

        That’s an awfully rigid way of thinking. The people who corrected you can also revise or delete their comments. There are like 2 of them. There’s absolutely no shame in editing a title or deleting an incorrect post.

        Lot’s of people only read titles as they scroll, and you’re dong those people a disservice. Just fix your post.
